What does Menthe Fraîche / Fresh Mint smell like?
It opens with green lemon and the two mints, a cool, green start. In the heart, tarragon, cardamom and clary sage add a lightly spicy, herbal depth, while the sweet and floral touches stay in the background. Cedarwood, musk and vetiver settle it into a dry, soft woody base.
Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin and keeps quiet. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. Though it is sold as a men's fragrance, a share of voters also find it feminine.
